don't the lights look empty
when the streets are bare
almost as empty
as the look you give me
when I'm the only one
and it's a long one
so it brings you down
so say you have nowhere else to go
and nothing to do
so you hang around
you hang around
but you wait around until
you've received that fatal wound
columns of sunlight
and glorious cities
oceans of opportunity
and all your decisions seem ancient
but you wait around until
you've received that fatal woundThere's no-one watching over me tonight and I'm afraid to turn out the lights,
If I close my eyes, it'll all go away and I don't wanna see it end this way.
There was a time when truth and trust meant so much more to each of us
And all the dreams that once we had have seen the sun and left us feeling bad
Now the changing of the guard has left us feeling so damn hard
I'll keep my distance, but I'm a little bit afraid
Through the years one thing hasn't changed
Yeah, yeah, yeah-hey
I would run through fields of fire,
I would crawl on broken glass,
Just to swin in your sea of devotion, just to have a second chance
That's all I ask
Now feeling good is not good enough, I know they've changed but not that much
Midnight time has left us feeling beaten up, I never was one who needs to give
enough
I ain't a hero who gets the girl, but if I had my chance to save the world
I won't blow it now, I guess I'll understand
This boy becoming a man
Yeah, yeah, yeah-hey
I would run through fields of fire,
I would crawl on broken glass,
Just to swim in your sea of devotion, just to have a second chance
That's all I ask
Well, look at your hands if you hear what I said.
Can you count on your fingers each of your real friends
I know that I'm lucky, I know I'm right.
Fingers turn into fists, we're here to take on the night.
That's right
Now I'm staring at an open door, we've had a lot and I want much more
You can keep all the money, and the streets that's painted gold
If someone gives me back my soul
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-hey
I would run through fields of fire,
I would crawl on broken glass
Just to swim in your sea of devotion, just to have a second chance
I would run through fields of fire,
I would run through fields of fire
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, I would run
All the way back home, I would run,
Baby come along
